This publication presents Zambia’s Biodiversity Expenditure Review (BER), which assesses public biodiversity-related spending to support improved policies, financing, and conservation outcomes. Using the BIOFIN methodology, the analysis examines biodiversity expenditures across 24 national and provincial institutions over the period 2014–2019, drawing primarily on Ministry of Finance data and complemented by macroeconomic sources. The BER highlights key spending trends, sectoral contributions, and the scale of biodiversity financing, showing that biodiversity expenditures accounted for approximately 0.11% of GDP and demonstrated an overall upward trend during the review period.
